I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

The three words "Resurrection Grass" made it impossible for Chen Lin to refuse.

Because it was one of the treasures he found out that could help Xiaocao revive.

He doesn't care whether it benefits him or not, but since it concerns Xiaocao, he has to give it a try no matter how dangerous it seems.

"What the senior said is true. Is there really a resurrection grass there?"

"Why would you lie? It's only 20 or 30 miles away. You'll know once you get there."

Chen Lin nodded slightly.

"In that case, I will take the risk and go with you, Senior. However, Senior needs to swear a great oath to guarantee that what he says is true."

"no problem."

Shen Wenling readily agreed.

Then he pointed to the sky and swore an oath.

Seeing this, Chen Lin did not make any more requests. In this square city, the contract could not be taken out, and even if it was taken out, it would have no effect. He could only be bound by an oath.

So he put on a simple disguise and followed the other party out of the city center.

Since neither of them could fly, they continued on foot.

"Senior, are you from the Void Realm?"

Chen Lin took the opportunity to communicate with the other party.

"That's natural, otherwise it would come from there."

Shen Wenling said as a matter of course.

"Which area is the senior from?"

Chen Lin asked again.

Then he explained: "I have been in the lower level of Kunyu, and I don't know much about other areas. I am a little curious."

The area range of the Void Realm is divided according to the corresponding positions of the Cage Array, and the Cage Array has the Eight Trigrams, which are divided into eight directions.

"So you are a fellow Taoist from Kunyu. I am from Kanyu. You are welcome to visit Kanyu when you have time."

"Haha, you are joking, sir. I am just a mere beginner in the Void Realm. How can I have the ability to travel across regions?"

Chen Lin spoke with self-mockery.

Let’s get to the point.

"Senior, this Sifang City may change its location. Can I go directly from here to other areas?"

Shen Wenling glanced at Chen Lin.

"How come you have the key to the city, but you don't even know this common sense?"

"I really don't understand it very well, please enlighten me."

"Nothing, this is not a secret. According to the rules, you will leave from the same place you came in."

“But it’s not absolute.”

Shen Wenling smiled and said, "If you can gain the favor of the Saint, you may be able to change the rules and choose any place to go out, or even not go out and stay here forever."

"Has anyone ever done that?"

Chen Lin's heart moved and he asked.

He also inquired about the matter of the saint. After all, Zhou Xuanwu mentioned her before he died, and he couldn't possibly ignore it.

The so-called saint is the phantom of the tower spirit that appears after the holy tower is opened.

There are records and portraits in the city's classics, and she is very similar to the beautiful woman shown by the Mermaid Sword.

There must be a connection between the two.

"Have."

Shen Wenling replied in a deep voice.

"When it was opened ten thousand years ago, my fellow Taoist came in and said that there was a man named Hong Tingzhen who got a place to enter the holy land and obtained one of the seven treasures in the holy tower. He then asked the saint to change his location and escape the pursuit of his enemies."

  Hong Tingzhen!

Chen Lin was shocked again.

This man is truly the son of destiny, and his reputation is everywhere.

"Do you have an enemy waiting outside? Then try to find a way to get the treasure in the divine tower. If that doesn't work, see if the monks who came in have a usable life bag and can take you away. But they must be in the same range as you."

Shen Wenling did not hide anything.

Not only did he introduce the situation, but he also gave a solution.

Finally, he said, "If you really have a strong enemy outside, it is your luck to meet me. With this resurrection grass, maybe I can save your life."

Shen Wenling thought that Chen Lin agreed to his request only after hearing about the Resurrection Grass, and that he wanted to use it to save his life, so he made an expression as if to say, "You're taking advantage of me, kid."

Chen Lin didn't explain.

He bowed and thanked her: "Thank you very much, senior."

The two of them chatted as they walked.

In less than half an hour, they arrived near a lake.

But in this square city, even the lakes are square, and square fish jump out of the water from time to time, which is very strange.

However, when he saw this position, Chen Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

Although this lake is also within the Cheng family's sphere of influence, it is not the family's residence. Even if there are strong guards, there will not be too many.

"The underground pool I'm talking about is right below that tributary."

Shen Wenling pointed to the small river on one side and said to Chen Lin.

Chen Lin took a look.

He immediately asked, "How can we get in? Is there an entrance? Are there any people from the Cheng family guarding it?"

"Don't worry, there's no one there, and the Cheng family probably doesn't know about that place either."

Shen Wenling gave Chen Lin a reassuring look.

Then he touched the ring on his finger, and suddenly a weak energy emerged, distorting the surrounding space.

The two of them disappeared into the distorted space.

Chen Lin glanced at the other person's ring.

Only then did he see that the ring was not square and showed no signs of changing, indicating that it was of a high grade, the same as Li Fuyao's jade bracelet.

No wonder the other party is so fearless, it turns out there is such a treasure.

However, as a powerful person in the Realm, it would be impossible for him to come to Sifang City without some special treasures.

You must know that once you enter this place, there is no difference between the real realm and the virtual realm. What determines strength is no longer cultivation, but who has the means to break the rules.

Even the same as the semi-virtual realm.

You can call the shots outside, but it would be too unfair if you die here at the hands of low-level monks or indigenous people.

Chen Lin followed closely.

Follow each other to the river.

"The place I'm talking about is right below here, but there's no entrance. We need to burrow underground to get there."

Shen Wenling explained.

He stretched out his hand and took out a black claw that was glowing and moving constantly.

The most important thing is that the five pointed fingers on this black claw all remain in their original shape and have not become square.

Chen Lin sighed secretly.

As expected of a powerful person in the Real Realm, he has so many treasures. If this thing were placed outside, it would definitely be a top-notch real treasure.

Just as I thought of this, I heard Shen Wenling speak.

"This is a claw of an eternal-level void beast. I got it by chance. Things that are not at the eternal level are basically useless here."

Chen Lin's heart moved.

He asked hurriedly, "Is it true that all the treasures here can reach the eternal level as long as they can be taken out?"

"uncertain."

Shen Wenling shook his head.

"That depends on the level of the treasure. The ones with a slight curve are useless and can only be considered as the true level. But the treasures here do not need the true principle to activate, but can be used by practitioners in the virtual realm, so they are also good treasures."

"If there is a treasure that can completely break through the suppression of the rules here, it must have eternal characteristics, but it may not necessarily break through to the true level."

Having said that, Shen Wenling looked into the distance in the direction of the holy land.

A face full of longing.

"Only the seven treasures in the Holy Tower are truly eternal treasures. However, to obtain them, not only do you need to be strong enough, you also need some luck. Moreover, four of them have been taken away, and now there are only three left."

"That's it. Thank you, senior, for clearing up the confusion."

Chen Lin thanked him respectfully.

He immediately understood that the other party had risked coming in for the treasures in the holy tower.

The reason why Hong Tingzhen was able to rise quickly and make all the strong men fear him was because he obtained one of the seven treasures.

Eternal treasure, it’s exciting to think about it.

Chen Lin also had some expectations in his heart.

If Hong Ting could really get the treasure, it might be possible that he couldn't as well. Moreover, the holy tower might have been left by Niu Niu. If so, the treasure should have been his.

"Get ready, let's go down!" Shen Wenling reminded and activated the black claw.

The black claws immediately grew larger, wrapped around the two of them, and drilled underground.

Chen Lin calmed his mind, remained cautious and alert, ready to respond to any emergency at any time.

But it didn't happen by accident.

After a few breaths, I felt my body lighten and then fell into a dark space.

"what?"

After standing firmly, Shen Wenling let out a light exclamation.

Chen Lin was also stunned.

This was a place similar to an underground cave. Just as Shen Wenling had said, there was a small pool of water. In the middle of the pool there was a small stone floating on the water surface, and on the stone grew three small grasses that sparkled with light.

But there was a person standing by the pool.

Someone has already taken the lead.

"who are you?"

Shen Wenling was not panicked. He raised his wrist and pointed at the other party with his black claws.

Instead, the other party was shocked.

He also took a defensive stance and turned around.

After being stunned for a moment, he patted his chest and said, "It turned out to be my second uncle. I thought it was a member of the Cheng family!"

Shen Wenling looked surprised.

"peaceful?"

"Why are you here? Weren't you traveling? Where did you get the key?"

He walked forward, frowned and spoke.

Chen Lin did not follow, but stood where he was, his eyes flickering.

This woman who suddenly appeared actually knew Shen Wenling. I'm afraid things are going to change.

Also.

Although the clothes this person wore had turned into a square shape with straight horizontal and vertical lines, the shiny black material and dark gold patterns gave him a sense of familiarity.

If I'm not mistaken, it's most likely the woman in the black dress who took away his cube in the Hall of Destruction of Star Sea!

"Uncle, why did you come just now?"

The woman leaned close to Shen Wenling intimately.

With a smile on his face, he said, "I'm still wondering. This place is a treasure-hunting place marked by the family. Anyone who comes in will definitely explore it. Nothing should be left behind."

"You haven't answered my question yet?"

Shen Wenling stared at the woman and continued to ask questions.

The woman spread her hands.

"What's the big deal? I just happened to get the key while traveling, so I came in to take a look."

"Nonsense!"

Shen Wenling was furious.

"Did you come in here casually? Every time the Sifang City is opened, do you know how many people die inside? Less than one in ten can get out alive!"

The woman grinned.

He laughed again, "Oh, didn't I know that my family would definitely send someone over? How could I not be able to get out? Besides, I'm fine, so please don't be angry, Second Uncle."

"act recklessly."

Shen Wenling glared at him angrily, but did not scold him again.

Instead, he asked in confusion: "Whoever gets the key to Sifang City will not be exposed. How could you get it? Didn't you sign a contract and be controlled by someone?"

"How can it be."

"Uncle, you underestimate me too much. Would I be controlled by someone? Controlling others is more like it, but I met a fool. I used a little trick to get the key."

Chen Lin behind him froze in silence.

This fool seems to be referring to him.

He was really deceived. This woman was not in the real realm at all. She could only imitate the aura of a strong person in the real realm.

This is really like hunting geese all your life, only to be pecked in the eye by a goose.

But I can't take revenge. Now the other party's second uncle is a real person.

There was nothing I could do but pretend I didn’t know him and just stood there quietly.

"It's OK as long as you are not controlled by others."

Shen Wenling nodded, turned and pointed at Chen Lin.

"This is Fellow Daoist Lu Jinan. His soul is quite special. I, your second uncle, have been here once before, but my soul was restricted and I couldn't get close to the Resurrection Grass, so I asked Fellow Daoist Lu to help."

Then he said to Chen Lin: "This is my niece Shen Anning, you can get to know her. She likes traveling everywhere, you never know if you will meet her in the future."

"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Shen. Nice to meet you."

Chen Lin changed his voice tone slightly so that the other party could not recognize him by his voice.

Shen Anning looked at Chen Lin but did not recognize him. After all, Chen Lin had changed his clothes and had his appearance retouched in order to conceal his identity.

"Hello, Fellow Daoist Lu."

She spoke softly and greeted him.

There is no intention of making friends.

Chen Lin didn't want to make friends with the other party either. As for the grudge of cheating the Quartet away, it would not be too late to take revenge after leaving here.

So he turned his attention to Shen Wenling.

He said respectfully, "Senior, please tell me how to collect the Resurrection Grass."

His understanding of the Resurrection Grass was rather vague. Generally speaking, this kind of strange spiritual creature had taboos of one kind or another, and required special means to collect.

"Did you see that there is a circular pattern on the roots of the three grasses? Remember, when you pick them, you must hold the pattern and not touch other places, otherwise the resurrection grass will melt."

"After I took it off."

Shen Wenling took out three jade boxes.

“It’s fine if it’s packed in this box at the first time.”

"it is good."

Chen Lin took the box, put it into his bag, and walked to the edge of the pool.

But he didn't go there immediately.

After a moment of hesitation, he said, "Senior, let's be humble first and gentlemen later. Your niece must also swear an oath, otherwise I will not feel at ease."

He didn't want to make this request because the so-called oath was not very binding.

But Shen An Ning is not a gentleman at all. Once he gets the Resurrection Grass, there is a high possibility that he will take action.

"can."

Shen Wenling acted easy-going and asked Shen Anning beside him to swear.

Shen An Ning was somewhat reluctant, but still did as she was told. However, the look she gave Chen Lin became somewhat unfriendly.

Chen Lin didn't care either.

With a light leap, he landed on the stone.

Suddenly.

Waves of extremely corrosive energy emanated from the three blades of grass, causing the soul to tremble.

Chen Lin was shocked and quickly activated his soul source.

I breathed a sigh of relief when I felt the restlessness in my soul slowly subside.

But he did not dare to delay, and immediately followed Shen Wenling's instructions and dug up three plants at a time and put them into the jade box.

Shen Wenling and Shen Anning looked at each other.

They both knew very well the extent of the damage that the Resurrection Flower could do to the soul, and were surprised that Chen Lin could resist it so easily.

Especially Shen Wenling, he gently touched the ring on his finger, his eyes a little vague.

After Chen Lin found the three resurrection herbs, he did not stop and jumped back to the shore again.

"Senior, I'll give it to you after I get out of here. I hope you can understand."

Chen Lin made the request while holding the Mermaid Sword in his hand and concentrating on being on guard.

"Don't worry. I, Shen Wenling, always keep my promises and won't go back on my word."

Shen Wenling smiled gently at Chen Lin.

Very kind.

This made Chen Lin even more nervous. The other party's inexplicable kindness was indeed a bit abnormal.

Even Shen An Ning, who was standing next to him, was a little suspicious.

Shen Wenling said nothing more, but activated his black claws to cover the three people and disappeared on the spot. (End of this chapter)
